Looked like he was going to walk player of season after five games
Been very poor since.
Seems to have lost that swagger he had early on, and passing is poor
Hopefully will soon come good again because we've only got winston Bogarde, I mean brown in reserve
What's happened to clayton

Picked up 4 MOM awards already this season- Couple of poor games recently but outstanding overall.

Agreed Clayton has gone off the boil, but as we have dicussed orevious, Howson isn't having a big enough influence.
Look at the sides doing well... Llalana, Robson are controlling the game.
Both Clayton and Howson have the ability. Maybe they need a ball winner next to them. Just my opinion...

I think 4-5-1 suits both Howson and Clayton.
It gives Howson a free role as an attacking midfielder and Clayton sits back in the middle with another central midfielder. I don't know who that other CM would be though. We don't have that much depth in that position. Brown is no good and Nunez is an attacking midfielder. He can't even play that very well either.

Clayton needs a rest in my opinion....... the missing player in our midfield is someone like Spearing at Liverpool i reckon .....

"...when the team plays well, he shines."
Or is it a case of when he shines, the team plays well?

Thats one of Graysons problems he doesnt rest players and then we have a poor 2nd half of the season. I agree Claytons been off the boil lately and needs a rest.
